Shree Bhagwati Club (SBC) is a Nepali professional football club based in Tokha, Kathmandu. Established as a community-driven initiative, the club has grown into a competitive force in Nepal's domestic football pyramid, representing the cultural and sporting spirit of the Tokha municipality.[2]

History

The club spent many years in the lower divisions, building its foundation through grassroots efforts and community support. A significant turning point occurred in June 2016, when Shree Bhagwati Club won the Martyr's Memorial C-Division League title. Under the guidance of coach Bikash Gauchan, they secured promotion to the 'B' Division, ending a six-year struggle in the third tier.  Since then, the club has established itself as a powerhouse in the second tier, consistently finishing near the top of the table. In the 2024–25 (2081 BS) season, they remained unbeaten for much of the campaign, ultimately securing a place in the Martyr's Memorial A-Division League for the 2026 season.[3]
